Abstract
A system for securing electronic devices includes a processor, non-transitory machine readable storage medium communicatively coupled to the processor, and a security controller. The security controller includes computer-executable instructions on the medium that are readable by the processor. The security controller is configured to determine a suspicious file from a client using security applications, identify whether the suspicious file has been encountered by other clients using the security applications, calculate a time range for which the suspicious file has been present on the clients, determine resources accessed by the suspicious file during the time range, and create a visualization of the suspicious file, a relationship between the suspicious file and the clients, the time range, and the resources accessed by the suspicious file during the time range.
